Understanding and simulating the relationship between urban land-use configuration and
patterns of human spatial interaction has been the subject of multi-disciplinary research …

This dissertation aims to understand how changes in land use and transportation
regulations at a local level could affect travel behavior such as trip-linking and mode choice …

Residential and job location decisions have lasting impacts on the emergent structure of
cities, which in turn, determines travel patterns, energy use and travel-related greenhouse …

Cities and metropolitan regions face several challenges including rising urban populations,
sprawled land use patterns, and related auto dependence, energy consumption …

The relationship between urban development and transport is not simple and one way but
complex and two way and is closely linked to other urban processes, such as …

A large and still growing body of literature links urban form and individual travel behavior. It
is claimed that certain urban forms, such as mixed land use, can reduce transportation …

The concept of spatial interaction (SI) encapsulates the domain of human activities that
occur between a set of locations embedded within geographical space, such as the …

Background Noting the obvious complexity of city systems, it is not surprising that limitations
exist with respect to our understanding of the elements of urban spatial structure, particularly …

Urban spatial structure and mobility patterns co-evolve. A fundamental process that
underpins the emergent structure of cities and commuting patterns is location choice with …

To understand the factors that influence the spatio-temporal distribution of built space, and
thus population in an urban area, play an extremely important role in our greater …
